The Mila cardigan has a relaxed fit with dropped shoulders. It is knitted seamlessly top down with an allover cable pattern that is a lot easier than it first appears and is suitable for knitters who are just learning to knit cables. The cardigan is reversible so you can wear it with either side on the top. The Mila cardigan is started at the back neck and then increased to the full width of the back. After that stitches are picked up along the sloped shoulders for the fronts. The pieces are joined at the underarm and the body is then knitted in one piece. The sleeve stitches are then picked up from the body and worked in the round. The buttonband is worked in double knitting. The length of the body and sleeves are easily modified to suit your own body measurements. I recommend trying the cardigan on every now and then while working on it to make sure you get the perfect length for your style.
